From start to finish GNB has handled our project with integrity, honesty and a phenomenal work ethic.

Landscaping

Combining your landscaping dreams while building your dream home can be cost saving. The commencement of new home construction is an ideal time to begin the preliminary landscape design. Large machine such as excavators or back hoes are brought in to dig your homes foundation Time for these machines can be costly, as well there is a transport fee, so we recommend utilizing this time to place large rocks, level areas, create large garden beds or removing unwanted vegetation. Greg Bianchini the President of GNB Builders Inc. has an eye for landscape design and can assist you in making some of the large decisions.

Commonly the planting of trees, shrubs and grass occur when the home is complete due to safety issues and to prevent damage to new plants. Learning about the different plants that grow in your area and some of the local gardening challenges is advised before spending a lot of money at the garden store. Many homes on Vancouver Island are challenged with browsing from Island deer, however there are deer resistant shrubs that are beautiful and hardy.
